Minecraft headed to Android devices

If you are the sort that likes games that allow you to create your own world as you see fit you will be interested to hear that Minecraft is coming to the Android platform. The game allows you to place little blocks to build your world.

After you build your world, monsters come out at night. Apparently, you have to build a shelter that will keep the monsters at bay over night and then continue your building the next day. The game is also coming to the iPhone and the mobile versions will land ahead of the desktop version.

An exact launch date for the Android version isn't offered, but it is said to be coming before the desktop version. That desktop version is expected later this year.
